The freeway comprises three-lanes from its source (the intersection of Portrush Road, Cross Road and Glen Osmond Road at Glen Osmond, through to the Crafers exit. The freeway then continues as two lanes until Murray Bridge where the freeway terminates and becomes the Princes Highway (national route A1]].
